I just put some new tires on the Next Generation Trnka Toy. I started out looking on Tire Rack but then I thought about TireVan because they come to your location to put on the tires. I liked their website (www.tirevan.com) gave you several choices on how to search for tires. It ended up the ultra high performance all season tires I selected (with the use of their "price/performance" slider bar) were the most inexpensive. I ended up saving about $50 over Tire Rack, and they came to me!:rock:

Here are two of the MINIs I tagged in Australia....I had to remember to put the card on the right side of the car...LOL...

That looks AWESOME Ali!!! GREAT JOB!!!

I have tagged a few more...took photos with my phone. I will have to post them when I get back in the states. The Brit's I am here with think I am crazy....I told them about Ali and they changed that to me being just Looney.:stupid: (Love you Ali ) We are going to an Australian Rules Football match tomorrow night...then I fly back on Saturday. Wish I could drive :motor:one over here!!!

That is AWESOME!!!

I tagged my first Australian MINI today. It was a yellow R56 on the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) in Melbourne. I could't take a photo since no cameras allowed. I will go by the Melbourne MINI dealer tomorrow after my workshop. I'll get some photos from there and post them here.

I saw TGGRRR and HzB BLUR today :rock::rock::rock::rock::rock:

Are the wheels and tires still available?

No worries....I was going to do a U-turn and chase you down but the urge to get home overcame me....:laugh:

I was motoring :motor:home today (Friday 11 March 11) going west on Little River Turnpike and I saw this AWESOME hot orange MINI Convertible….I started flashing my lights :joyman:and honking my horn:bootyshake:….I think the people in the cars around me thought I was having a seizure by the way I was waving:itsme::hello::ciao::wavey::aetsch:….as the MINI got closer I saw flames on the bonnet and a plate with TGGRRR….and the driver didn’t wave back….:dontknow::dontknow:

Too late....but I can play in both worlds.....

That was good!:rofl::rofl: It was installed over a year ago. Fairfax Honda had someone come in to install it. Sometimes when I drive I hear a flapping sound...I generally just slow down till I get somewhere I can stop and press the seal back in. There is a channel in the rubber that needs to slip over the top of the windscreen in order for it to stay put. I may just stop by an AutoGlass shop and have them look at it.:banghead: Thanks for the advice and humor....

Interested for a 03 R53....

:rock::rock::rock::rock::rock: :party::party: :dancing::dancing::dancing::dancing::dancing:No more sway'n.....

Has anyone had problems with their uppper windscreen seal? I had a new windscreen put on my R53 when I purchased it Jan 2010. The upper rubber seal comes loose in the middle when I am on the highway :motor:everyonce in a while. Any suggestions as to what I could do to fix it instead of going to an auto glass shop? Thanks!!!

I will check my calendar....:pcguru:

Okay....figured it out....when you program it you have to hold the door lock in the up position...then you set the switches....hold the door lock down to de-program it. :joyman:

Purchased an Ian Cull's Auto-Up V7 last month and finally got around to installing it. I tested it before I put everything back together and got the flashing lights...even get the tones when I try to program it. But for some reason it doesn't accept the programing. Has anyone had this problem? Thanks!

I had made the recommendation to him based off of all your comments about SeaFoam....I also directed him to youTube for instructions. He is retired from the Navy and wished he had video taped it himself...quoted as saying..."it was bigger than any ship generated smoke screen I had ever seen"...

Anyone planning a seafoam party soon? I would love to try some in NGTT and my daughter's Solara. I told a friend about it when he was having trouble passing MD emmisions....he passed after laying down a smoke screen on HWY 50...LOL

Went into DC on Saturday to visit some of the museums....we parked in the garage on 6th and C Streets SW. Got out of the car and my daughter said..."look another MINI!" BIIG RED

:motor:I'll be there!!!:motor:

Yes he did....he turned onto Main Street in Fairfax and I flashed....I pulled up alongside with a wave....we did the head nod...:rock:

Found this Electric Blue MINI on the way home yesterday...we played tag on Main Street in Fairfax for a few miles....:motor:

THose are some AWESOME photos Ali!!! :top:
